How to use "referenced files" in MY case?

I have a MacBook pro, which I bring with me between home and studio.
Until now, I've been storing my shots on an external HD. This means that I cannot see my photos when I'm home.
I've been looking into the "referenced files"-thing.
I would like to be able to see a preview of all my shots also when I only have my MacBook and not the external drive. When I shoot, I would like to store NEW shots on my MacBook at first (to edit, tag etc.) but then put them on my external drive for storage.
I haven't been able to figure out how to do this. Can anyone please explain or link me to a place where I can read about it?
Thanks in advance

I haven't done this yet, but soon I'll need to coordinate a laptop and a desktop machine. So don't take my word for anything!
It sounds as though you have Aperture set up so that the laptop machine's library is on the external drive -- not just the images that make up the heart of the library. Is that right? The alternative would be to tell Aperture its library is on the laptop, but have the library reference master images on the external drive. Previews -- if you have Aperture set to create and/or maintain previews in any or all projects -- are in the library, which is on the computer whether or not you have the drive containing the masters with you.
(Am I going wrong yet??)
But I'm still not clear, when master images are referenced, where Aperture stores versions, adjustments, metadata; in the library or with the referenced images?
Anyway, it seems as though this arrangement should allow you to import new images into a project in the laptop's library while on the road. Then I don't think you even have to export and re-import the project -- when you're hooked back up to the external you just "relocate masters" for the new project onto the external drive.
Somebody please straighten me out if I've got all this wrong.

Question about how javac finds referenced files.

Hi
I am just beginning to learn Java and have got some questions related to packages.
I have two classes:
MyClass.java
package pkg;
public class MyClass {
     public void prn(int x){
     System.out.println("Integer: "+x);
Test.java
import pkg.*;
public class Test{
     public static void main(String[] args){
          MyClass obj=new MyClass();
          obj.prn(2);
Directory structure
/root/ jprog/MyClass.java
/root/ jprog/Test.java
Executing the following sequence of commands gives me:
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java
# javac -d . MyClass.java
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java pkg/
# cd pkg
# ls
MyClass.class -----compiles.
# cd ..
# javac Test.java
Test.java:5: cannot access MyClass
bad class file: ./MyClass.java
file does not contain class MyClass
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
MyClass obj=new MyClass();
^
1 error
Now after reading another thread on this forum I came to know that the compiler finds the
MyClass.java in the wrong package. Using verbose option with javac shows this.
So I move it to some other directory and everything works.
# mv MyClass.java /root
# ls
Test.java pkg/
# javac Test.java
# java Test
Integer: 2
Now the question begins:
Suppose we go back to how the files were arranged before I moved the MyClass.java file and
I change the Test.java file by adding
package pkg2;
statement to it.
Now everything compiles
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java ---I have deleted pkg and .class files
# cat Test.java
package pkg2;
import pkg.*;
public class Test{
public static void main(String[] args){
MyClass obj=new MyClass();
obj.prn(2);
# cat MyClass.java
package pkg;
public class MyClass {
public void prn(int x){
System.out.println("Integer: "+x);
# javac -d . MyClass.java
# javac -d . Test.java
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java pkg/ pkg2/
# java pkg2.Test
Integer: 2
Why isn't the MyClass.java file causing any problems now?
Using the verbose option with javac shows that the compiler goes straight for the pkg/MyClass.class.
My readings of Core Java Horstmann tell me that the compiler always looks in the current directory. javac documentation also doesn't help. I know that the documentation recommends that the source file locations should match the package statements.
I'm just trying to learn how javac finds referenced files.
Any help??
Thanks a load in advance.

I know that the
documentation recommends that the source file
locations should match the package statements.This is not merely a recommendation, it is a requirement.
Both javac and java find classes by traversing the classpath. The classpath should contain directories (or jar files) that correspond to the top of a (part of the) package hierarchy.
For example, if the Java code for your class is in a file C:\src\pkg\MyClass.java, and MyClass.java declares the class to be in package pkg, the classpath should contain C:\src. Classes are then found by transforming their package declaration into a directory structure.
Please note that javac works on files, not classes. Therefore it is necessary to specify the full filenames of the files you want to compile, even if you have specified the classpath. By default, javac will put compiled class files in the same location as their sources, so the classpath for the java command should also contain C:\src.
The exception to the rule is when all classes for the program are in the default package (i.e., they do NOT contain a package statement). In that case, it is possible for javac (and I believe java as well) to find all classes in the current directory, so it will "just work".
You can specify the classpath using the -cp parameter to both javac and java.
Hope this helps.

How to use XSJS file path in Controller.js file

Hi Experts,
Regarding How to use XSJS file path in Controller.js file.
I have gone through the SAP HANA Extended Application Services (Thomas Jung http://scn.sap.com/community/developer-center/hana/blog/2012/11/29/sap-hana-extended-application-services article.)
Seems to be there is no information about the same. May be the article is targetted for Beginners and above. As I am a learner I am not able to do the same.
var aUrl = '../../logic/demo_main.xsjs? (highlighted)
Suppose my XSJS file is at http://ipaddress:8000/newtest/Func.XSJS.
Can I use like below
var aUrl = 'http://ipaddress:8000/newtest/Func.xsjs?
or
var aUrl = '../../newtest/Func.xsjs?
I tried with multiple options but not able to get the expected output.
Can you please provide more details on this?

Dear Thomas,
I am a abap developer , recently we meet a problem on our webdynpro report performnace issue. As in the development, we use SALV_WD_TABLE to design a ALV. and verything work correctly in our DEV system.
But after when our QAS system, there are more records for the ALV, one of them has 21000 records. And in the layout, we have a column as checkbox.
If we click any one checkbox, then the layout will respond almost 1~2 minutes. With debug I found the most time cost in the standard program.
And with search I found that you have solution to solve it as 1,000,000 rows.
So is it possible to provide some idea or solution to us?
Many thanks for your help!

How to use a CTE in a CASE statement?

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to use a CTE in a CASE statement and getting error. In fact, I'm not sure how to use a CTE in this case and this is the first time I'm using a CTE. I managed to build a CTE successfully but, failed to incorporate it in the CASE statement.
SELECT wbs,
MIN(srt),
MAX(srt)
CASE ust
WHEN
WITH CTE AS
SELECT p_id + p_name + ps_name AS colg, p_id
FROM pd_info
WHERE s_desc = 'warehouse'
OR p_desc = 'Originated from warehouse'
OR p_desc = 'Originated from a partner store'
SELECT colg FROM CTE
WHERE cte.colg IN (SELECT p_id + p_name + ps_name AS c
omb from pd_info)
OR cte.p_id = 'xxxxxxxx' THEN 'invalid'

END,

How to use properties file

Hi,
I want to use properties file in my application. I have kept properties file inside a directory called properties which is inside myProject(which is the parent directory of my project) i.e "myProject/properties".
My java file where i want to call this properties file is inside the myProject/WEB-INF/src/java.
How can i call the properties file from myProject/WEB-INF/src/java/PropertyReader.java
I wrote java program in myProject/WEB-INF/src/java/PropertyReader.java like:::::
ResourceBundle resBun = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Test", Locale.getDefault()); // Test.properties is inside myProject/properties
resBun..getString("name");
After running the program i am getting the following errors:::::
Exception in thread "main" java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name Test, locale en_US
at java.util.ResourceBundle.throwMissingResourceException(ResourceBundle.java:836)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(ResourceBundle.java:805)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(ResourceBundle.java:576)
at PropertiesReader.main(PropertiesReader.java:4)
What is the issue? How to use properties file?
Waiting for reply.
Thanks

Still getting same exception. As you explained i tried like the below:::
1. I am using ant as build tool.
2. My properties file is for database configuration
My properties file is::
database.properties (inside myProject/properties)
JDBCDriver=org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
JDBCConnectionURL=jdbc:mysql://pmdbmysql:3306/bandwidthshaper?user=admin&password=admin
My java package structure is
WEB-INF/src/java
WEB-INF/src/classes
For build WEB-INF is the base directory and build.xml is inside the src directory
In my build.xml i wrote the following lines for compilation::
          <target name="compile" >
               <javac srcdir="src" destdir="src/classes" debug="true" debuglevel="lines,vars,source">
                    <classpath refid="class.path"/>
               </javac>
<copy todir = "src/classes" >
<fileset dir = "../properties" />
</copy>
               <jar jarfile="lib/${project.jar.file}" basedir="src/classes"/>
          </target>
I am copying properties file to the classes directory.
Now in java file which is inside /WEB-INF/src/java, I wrote::
try {
Properties programProps = new Properties();
InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/database.properties");
if(is == null)
throw new IllegalStateException("Properties file missing ");
programProps.load(is);
System.out.println("driver name::::::: "+programProps.getProperty("JDBCDriver"));
is.close();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
After compilation in my classes directory i am getting database.properties file and my java file with package.
At the time of running i am getting "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Properties file missing"
Now tell me where is the fault. Why again i am getting exception.
Thanks

You have to either refer to the class in its fully quallified name, or import it into the JSP:
<%
some.full.packagename.RowSetDynaClass resultSet = new some.full.packagename.RowSetDynaClass(rs,false);
...-or-
<%@ page import="some.full.packagename.RowSetDynaClass" %>
<%
RowSetDynaClass resultSet = new RowSetDynaClass(rs, false);
...As long as the class has public visibility and you have re-started the server/servlet context since you added the JAR.

How to use batch files to send the load from ODC to UCM?

Hello all.
We're trying to do this along this week and, until now, we couldn't figure out how to use batch files containing metada on ODC and commit the output files to UCM.
So these are our specs:
VM 1
ODC - 10gR3
OS - Windows XP 32 bits SP3
DB - Oracle DB 11.2
VM 2
No ODC
UCM 11.1.1.6
OS - Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Carthage)
We've opened a ticket with Oracle Support to know how we should do this. The number is SR 3-6108348211.
Let me try to explain what we want to do:
1 - we have a batch file with all metadata of many files from UCM
2 - we want to use this file in ODC, so the application will convert the images and commit them to UCM
3 - we should see all these files, their metadata, thumbnails and related content in UCM
4 - this is a batch file example we want to send to ODC:
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=CHECKIN_UNIVERSAL
dRevLabel = 1
primaryFile=/tra/Relatorio_UHPF-03-04-2008-M-RL-EA.pdf
dDocName=TRA_33
dDocTitle=UHPF-03-04-2008-M-RL-EA
dSecurityGroup=MAM_TRA
dDocType=Document
dDocAuthor=luis.neotropical
dInDate=14/05/08
xC_CLASSIFICACAO=EA - Educação Ambiental
xC_DATA=01/04/08
xC_DATAVALIDADE=30/04/08
xC_LOCALIZACAOFISICA=N/D

xC_ORIGEM=Neotropical
xC_FORMATODOCUMENTO=Digital
xC_GENERODOCUMENTO=
xC_DOCPRINCIPAL=Sim
@end
<<EOD>>
5 - So, when we use this batch file on ODC, the file (or image) will be converted, all metadata attached and then sent to UCM.
But we don't know how to do the link between ODC and UCM. The Oracle Support says it is necessary to do some customization. In the books I could not find any info about how to do, just generic information or how to use ODC.
Is there a way (without customization) to do that? Can anyone give us a step-by-step guide?
Thanks for all help and guidance.
Fernando

What is the one-sentence requirement or issue you're trying to solve?
If you only want content to be converted to pdf, then you should already have that with your items checked into UCM (if you have IBR enabled).
if you really want to feed content into ODC using a batchfile, my first thought would be to create a transformation utility/app that will convert your batchfiles to the expected ODC import server folder job format. then you'll have to move or map the content to match.
Again, without knowing the exact issue/business requirement you're trying to work through, I'd say a redesign of your ingestion process may be in order.
If you feed content directly into ODC through any supported ODC method (watch folder, email, scanner, fax, etc), then you'll be able to use everything ootb as you'll be able to auto-commit directly into UCM or add an indexing step and manual commit to UCM.
ODC is basically a front end for indexing and extra ingestion options to your content repo.
IPM is basically the same, but it includes some extra process-related details (process metadata, process integrations/bpel/bpm, other system integrations/ebs/crm, etc). I don't feel that IPM would help with the transformation-specific question you've put out there.

How to Use PHP Files and .tpl files

I have taken a course and it includes a resource section with templates that I can use. These templates are squeeze page ones and inside the folder are index.php, config.php and a whole lot of .tpl files that open up in empty Stickies on my Mac.
Can someone explain how to use these files. When I open them in Dreamweaver I see code related to the php files but I can't browse the index.php file in a browser to see what the so called sqeeze page looks like.
Yikes I'm really lost here.
thanks

ORA-06401, 00000, "NETCMN: invalid driver designator"
Cause: The login (connect) string contains an invalid driver designator.
Action: Correct the string and re-submit.
The //ip:port/sid connect string will only work with 10g clients.
Check your tnsnames.ora file. Does the file have control characters or missing carriage-return characters ? (Maybe you ftp'd the file from a unix box ?)
I would suggest that you create a new tnsnames.ora - hand edit it (don't copy the old one). If you have sqlplus client - try using it to connect to the remote DB first.
The instructions for connection to a local or remote DB are all the same (when using plain OCILogon) because the connection is made over TCP.

Have you checked inside your Aperture library, if the original files are still there?
Try to find out, when the images in those projects have been originally imported, then open the Aperture library by ctrl-clicking it and using the command "Show package contents" from the pop-up menu. In the window that will open, select the folder "Masters" and browse the contents. You need to find the subfolder with the year you imported the images, then the folders with the month and the day.
Are your original files still there?
If yes, copy them to a folder on your desktop for safe-keeping, and then try, if repairing the permissions and the other Furst Aid tools will help Aperture to connect to these missing files again - see this link: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
If the First Aid Tools don't help, then check, if Aperture has moved the missing images to a "recovered folder". If not, reimport the images, you saved to your Desktop and use the Lift&Stamp tool to transfer any adjustment and captions to your reimported images.

Masters in Aperture Library Using Referenced Files

I use a MBP with an SSD to hold my Aperture 3 library.
I use a G-RAID to store my images and use Referenced Files.
All was good until yesterday, I deleted my Thumbnails to recreate them and remove the orphans.
After restarting Aperture and the processing time to recreate the Thumbnails (AP.Minis, Ap.Thumbnails, and AP.Tinies) I noticed my AP library was huge.
After inspecting the contents, there is now 65Gb worth of Masters, why would these be there since I use Referenced files and why would they have just now shown up after rebuilding my Thumbnails?

Remember:
-- A RAW file cannot be edited. It can only be written in a camera (or scanner, etc.) To be seen, it must be read through a RAW developer. The RAW developer (or converter, if you prefer) can apply changes to the bitstream (called "adjustments" in Aperture) but those changes always live in a separate file, called a "version" in Aperture. EVERY master image file in Aperture has at least one version file. The two are combined, in real time, every time you see a file. Thus questions about the Aperture library becoming corrupted are a bit moot - if you lose your library you will lose your edits. The only way to "save" edits to a RAW file is either adjust it in Aperture (or Lightroom) and let the program combine the two, or convert the file to an industry standard format, like TIFF or JPEG.
-- Aperture uses a "non-destructive" workflow. This means that it never really edits ANY file - not even a JPEG. This avoids the problem of recompressing JPEGS each time they are opened and close. So even JPEGS remain unaltered with your "edits" or "adjustments" being stored in one or more versions.
The only time you need to "save" a file in Aperture is when you need a new file in a specific format to give to someone. Until then, Aperture happily keeps track of your original images (managed or referenced) and the corresponding "edits" which it stores in a version linked to the original image file.
There are many reasons to prefer managed over referenced or vice versa, but fears of database integrity should not be one of them. You are making a lot of work for yourself - put the Aperture Vault on your server and/or use Time Machine. "Exporting" is a terrible way to try to make backups - it will take forever and you will end up with files scattered all over the place, defeating the purpose for which you bought Aperture in the first place.
Hope this helps.

How to use swf file for Spark Skin

Hi all
I have little confuse about how to use swf file with Spark Skin,
in Flex3 , i use Flex Skin Design Extension for Flash to deal with skin ,
so basically , I just create a swf file and import to the project , then everything is ok
but , seem that not working in flex4 , spark skin.
1` I can't find the Flex Skin Design for the FlashCs4
2` I try to use FlashCs3 version to import the skin art to the project , but seemed not working.
3` I Google and check the Flex4 Help , seemed Spak skin need the Skin-Class , which I don't know how to use that with swf file
what I have searched is how to use FXG , or some jpg file in that skin class, none of them are use swf file.
so , is there any way that let user use the swf file to deal with the skin?
is the Flex Skin Design can use in Flex4?
Thanks

Hello,
I'm new to Flex, but have come to it from Flash Pro. I'd like to know the same thing. I think I found the answer here:
http://www.flashallys.com/blog/spark-button-skinning-with-flash-symbols/
However my question is now: Is this a good approach to use?
99% of the googling I've done tells me to skin components with fxg files. I've tried that by creating graphics and exporting from flash, but using swfs containing lots of graphics is much faster so I'd rather use that.
The other thing I've done is to create custom components using these helpful tutorials:
Creating component in flash:
http://www.webkitchen.be/2008/12/12/video-tutorial-make-flex-components-with-flash-cs4/
Dealing with Resizing with method overrides for your flash component:
http://www.psyked.co.uk/flex/creating-flex-components-the-easy-way-for-flash-ide-converts. htm
This allows me the flexibility of Flash Pro design with the layout, transistions, data binding etc from Flex.
So my question is: Is this approach (skinning spark components with swfs, and using custom swc components made in flash) a bad idea for any reason? E.g. does it create slow mobile apps?
